For those mumu guys that think they can use money to buy loyalty from women

Just remember that Peller paid 30M for Jarvis surgery and still collect hot breakfast

And one boy somewhere is saving his salary to buy iphone for his babe on valentine day

LabStores:
Terrible

In a country where people are mostly on their own..

No benefits
No insurance
No compensation

ORIAYO70:
So Obi the desperate political monger did not know its time for South when he went to align with the Northern Cabals.


I don't know how u people sleep, u that support Obi.


Same Obi ran away from Atiku in 2023 in Pdp only to come n meet him again in ADC

What has changed

Baxilexi:
You are wrong.
Budgets are not compared in such manner.
The UK has a higher wage system and would need a bigger budget by a larger factor.
There are countries that operate a decent healthcare system with lesser budget.

Calling into the discussion the wasted resources by politician on foreign treatment.

While you have chosen to be the devils advocate and continually spill vile rhetoric on this platform, the truth that corruption is our albatross will always prevail.

Kobojunkie:
Some women are still a lot more than 1.

Kobojunkie:
Wrong! It is not always about convenience, as, again, if you googled it, you would see that a lot of women struggle to make enough milk to feed their babies, and so having that extra help available goes a long way. Babies need to be fed more frequently than grown children, and having that backup goes a long way.

Kobojunkie:
As I said, visit Google for the many other reasons why many mothers find they are unable to produce enough milk for their babies.

Kobojunkie:
We are talking about a balanced meal— not eating a mound of eba and a tiny piece of meat or drinking pap with a small piece of moimoi— at least 3 times a day, each day to get that moving in a way that can adequately nourish the baby, provided there are no other problems.

Anyway, you can check out Google to find out reasons why mothers from poverty backgrounds tend not to produce enough milk for their babies and end up needing to resort to using canned options.

Kobojunkie:
Where is the money to feed well with?

SpencerForbes:
That’s true. This present generation prefer baby mamas and single mothers like that isn’t more expensive than even marriage. Always focusing on money. That’s why we few men that really leads their home but thinks they can solve everything with excess money. That’s why we have lots of gays and immoral children in the society.

Kobojunkie:
You think breast milk is unlimited in supply? For women who are malnourished— yes, women have to feed very well to produce milk —, breast milk cannot be of much help for their babies.

SpencerForbes:
The focus shouldn't solely be on the ₦100k income, but rather on the financial intelligence and compatibility of the couple. Marriage doesn't mean you must start procreating immediately; if both partners are smart, they will draft a strategic blueprint first. For instance, the wife can engage in low-capital ventures like cloth vendoring at her workplace, while the husband manages a side hustle like a POS business. If they exercise delayed gratification and wait just two years before having a child, they could easily build a financial buffer. If they manage to save a combined ₦60k monthly out of their income, in two years they would have accumulated over ₦1.4 million. That is significant seed capital to scale a small business or secure housing before the real expenses of a baby arrive.

If we strictly followed the view that you need millions to start, many successful people today who started on meager ₦40k salaries would never have made it. Marriage is like a business partnership where the first three years are the 'stabilization phase,' and if you survive that with good planning, you will overcome. The real issue in Nigeria isn't always the lack of funds, but the lack of a plan. Money does not automatically guarantee a good family; you can spend millions raising a child who lacks drive, while a child from a modest home with strong values becomes a high flyer. [b]Look at civil servants on minimum wage who successfully train children through universit[/b]y—they do it through strict resource management, not excess wealth. We need to stop prioritizing location and luxury over the zeal and values required to build a successful home.

You can also decide to Eat that meal of plain veggies with love and ALONE, this is life man, you can't be too prepared, with that income they'll not have no savings, have to deal with little debts, not eat good, live good. If they decide to have a kid, what happens when that kid falls sick and they need 40,000 urgently? Have you checked what it costs now to be pregnant and have a baby? what happens when the mother cannot express much and the baby needs to be on formula for a few months 😂
The other day I saw on Tiktok how a lady whose baby couldn't take cow milk based formula because the baby was allergic to it, only goat milk based formula was okay for that baby, she was on there on Tiktok begging for help and showing videos of the baby, anyone could tell that baby wasn't eating good, goat milk based formulas are more expensive, people don't pray for these things but they still happen, the only way is to not do anything just because you have the minimum or because you believe in miracles or that "things will work out" things don't just work out because you need them to.

The sibling I spoke with told me he thought the wife was the cause but when he spoke with him he realised she was not as he acted on his own from their chat.

D7 na water 💦 Governor should pay the ransom.
I swear, Edo state people carry last for allowing someone like Monday D7 to rule them

I PRAY that Nigeria should never happen to me and my family, including you reading this comment. Amen 🙏🏻

Babatundehy:
The most dangerous of extremists, tyrants, radicals and terrorists, often appear calm, collected and try to seem intelligent. He is one of the many living proofs that Nigeria isn't and hasn't been ready or ever made any efforts towards ending the widespread insecurity, if such a "mediator" and apologist exists and walks freely among the people, in a country that has a government and security agencies, then the people of Nigeria should understand he's a mouthpiece of those in power, endorsed and emboldened by the elites.

This looks like a sponsored post or something the admin just felt like pushing to the front page... I am surprised that there are people who do not know this!

The Royal Academy of Engineering, in collaboration with the UK's Department for Science, Innovation, and Technology, commends Savatia for his transformative solution.

Acknowledging the award, Savatia expresses gratitude for the recognition of African innovation and looks forward to Signvrse's future impact. The judges, chaired by Rebecca Enonchong FREng, emphasized the quality, impact, and scalability of the solutions presented.

The event also honored Vivian Arinaitwe (Uganda), Neo Nest; Frank Owusu (Ghana), Aquamet; and Carol Ofafa (Kenya), E-Safiri, with £10,000 each.
